         Canada's wealth comes from the exploitation of its rich natural resources and from the work of its
    citizens. Canadians are employed in a variety of jobs. All of these jobs can be grouped into one of three
    categories: extractive industries, manufacturing industries and service industries.
         Industries that take raw materials from the natural environment are called extractive or primary
    industries. Canada has a wealth of natural resources. The extractive industries that have been developed
    to exploit these natural resources make an important contribution to the wealth of our economy. Without
    these extractive industries and the money they bring from other countries, Canada's economy could not
    exist in its present form. Yet only a small percentage of Canada's labour force work in extractive
    industries. Extractive industries rely on laboursaving machines instead of human labour.
         Manufacturing industries process the products of extractive industries into finished products.
    Manufacturing industries transform raw materials into many different forms to be used by consumers or
    by other companies. This processing may be done in one or more stages. For example, iron ore is
    transformed into steel in factories. This is called primary manufacturing. The steel is then sent to
    companies for further processing into cars, mining equipment, machines, nails, and other products-such
    as bicycle frames. This is called secondary manufacturing.
         Manufacturing industries are located in many towns and cities across Canada. Companies try to build
    their factories in densely populated areas because they want to near the people who buy their products.
    If they locate near their customers, then they save money on shipping costs. Manufacturing industries
    provide more jobs to Canadians than do extractive industries. Yet the number of people employed in
    manufacturing is still small in comparison to the third category, services. As with extractive industries,
    manufacturing process use many machines that require relatively few workers.
         Service industries provide services needed by the extractive and manufacturing industries, and by
    society in general. Without these services, society could not operate. The majority of Canadian workers
    do not produce "goods" in their jobs. Instead, they provide "services" for others. The range of services
    is very great and includes such things as retailing, office work, education, health care, communications,
    government, transportation, and personal services.
         Service industries in one form or another are spread over the entire country. In every community
    there are stores, banks, schools, police forces, and dozens of other services. The majority of service
    industries are found in town and cities because services are provided for people and there are many
    more people in urban areas.
         Canada's economy depends upon the creation of jobs in all three types of industry.

政治经济类阅读

等考点的理解。关于这些考点您可以点击下面的选项卡查看详细档案。
  • 政治经济类阅读

政治经济类文章的概念:

要做好这类阅读,平时就要注意了解国内外发生的政治经济大事,掌握一定背景知识,对这类文章的叙述特点及内容安排有一定了解,还要扩展这方面的词汇。阅读这类文章,要抓住文章的核心,即文章整体和各段主要在说什么,也要注意段落之间的逻辑关系。


如何备考政治经济类阅读理解题:

【题型说明】政治经济类阅读文章是高考常选材料之一。该类文章时代气息浓郁,语言鲜活,但熟字新义词、超纲词及专业词语多,长句、难句多。政治类文章大多数是同学们感性趣的内容,读起来倒有似曾相识的感觉,经济类文章读起来就像是雾里看花,文章看完,一头雾水。再加之这类文章的命题侧重于词义猜测、推理判断和文章主旨,同学们对这类题材是望而生畏。
【备考策略】建立心理优势。针对不同体裁的文章,我们要采取相应的阅读方法和技巧。政治类文章多采用记叙文形式,我们可采取“顺读法”,以便抓关键语句,领会文章主旨;而经济类文章则多采用说明文形式,我们则可以采取“逆读法”,先读试题,再从文章中查找有用信息。若遇到的确难读的材料。千万不用着急,因为你觉得难,其他人也一定是同感。在高考前,我们就要有这种心理准备,高考试卷肯定有一、两篇难以阅读的材料。不过,我们平时可以有意识地从报刊杂志上找一些较难的阅读材料来阅读,以培养自己迎难而上的心理素质。
【答题方法】
1、寻找主干:
根据英语中五种基本句型结构,把句子中的主语、谓语、宾语、表语等主要成分找出来,其他成分如定语、状语、补语等则易于理解。找到了句子主干,句子的意思至少明白了一半。
2、剔除从句:
在一个长句中可能会出现若干个从句,在理解时,如果把各个从句剔除出来单独理解,然后把大意拼凑起来,整个长句的意思就会明白六、七分。
3、辨别分句:
一个长句如果是由几个并列、转折、递进、对比关系的分句组成,句中往往有表示这些分句关系的连接词,只要能弄清楚分句和分句之间的逻辑关系,再把各层分句的意思加以连贯,整个长句的句意基本上能跃然脑中。
4、寻找关键词:
如果一个句子看完,一点句意的感觉也没有,下下策就是抓住句中的关键词,通过关键词大体弄懂这个长句的意思。
